Testimonials
Tom Thunder is a great instructor with a fantastic sense of humor! I will recommend his class to others and will refer employees to his practice.
I would highly recommend this training course to anyone working in occ med … one of the better seminars I’ve attended.
This was the BEST class I have taken in 20 years. Very relaxed – and well versed.
Loved the atmosphere (round tables, music, refreshments). Really liked the visual aids, demonstrations, explanations, passing things around, etc.
Thomas was very professional yet added humor. Much better than a 3-day course taken in Wisconsin 5 years ago
This is one of the best classes I have attended, and I have attended (and taught) MANY!
